12th placed Real Betis head into Friday night’s La Liga clash against third from bottom club, Mallorca, having failed to win any of their last 4 matches overall in the Spanish top flight, but they have the perfect opportunity to turn things around when Mallorca come to town.
Recent defeats to Getafe and Barcelona in 1-0 and 3-2 losses respectively along with 1-1 and 0-0 draws with Eibar and Leganes respectively mean that Friday night’s hosts, Real Betis, have earned just 2 points from the last possible 12 on offer from their last 4 matches.
Results overall on home turf have been pretty steady though for Real Betis as the hosts have collected 3 wins from their last 5 matches which includes victories over Valencia, Athletic Bilbao and Real Sociedad which should give them confidence in getting a positive result on Friday night.
With just 5 defeats out of their last 16 matches at home and having won their last 3 encounters on the trot against Mallorca, Real Betis look in reasonable shape to grab the points here.
Mallorca ended a dismal run of 3 defeats on the trot in last weekend’s 1-0 victory at home over Deportivo Alaves, but the visitors still remain in the bottom three of La Liga ahead of this upcoming trip to face Real Betis.
Recent defeats to Real Sociedad, Real Valladolid and Espanyol have prevented Mallorca from lifting themselves out of the relegation zone, and although they’ve captured wins against Valencia and the aforementioned Deportivo Alaves in recent weeks, these were both registered on home turf at their Iberostar Estadi.
Switch to results away from home, and Mallorca have been woeful on the road as they’ve failed to win any of their away matches so far this season, and indeed have recorded just 1 point out of the possible 33 on offer on their travels so far this term.
10 defeats out of their last 11 away matches underlines the troubles that Mallorca have had so far away from home, so further trouble could be on the horizon for the visitors when they come up against Real Betis this Friday night.
To make matters worse, Mallorca also possess the worst defensive record in La Liga on the road which includes failing to keep a single clean sheet on the road as well as conceding 2 goals or more in 8 of their 11 away matches to date.
